Hey group,

I just finished my 3rd pack of Diane 35 last week and went to see my doctor. He said that my blood pressure is a bit high (140/91) and suggested that I wait for a while until it gets stable and then start my next pack. My skin has been getting better in the past 3 months and I am afraid that my hormone will freak out while I'm waiting. Has anyone experienced the same symptom while they are on the pill and will the blood pressure goes down once you stop taking the pill? How did you deal with it? Thank you so much!!

You can bring your blood pressure down safely by taking beetroot tablets or beetroot powder.

Be careful taking birth control pills - they can cause fungal acne, especially if you also take antibiotics.

When I was pregnant, I also started having high blood pressure for the first time. It wastotallyunexpected. To manage it, Ireallyfocused on eating more fruits and veggies and less salt, and I kept a close eye on my blood pressure regularly.
